About Us

Welcome from Your State Association President

We  are a not-for-profit association serving licensed plumbers and HVAC  contractors in Tennessee with three local chapters:  Knoxville, Middle  Tennessee and Northeast Tennessee.

The TAPHCC membership is  composed of contractors from across the state which includes one and two  person firms as well as some of the largest contractors in the state.   If you are a licensed and reputable contractor in the p-h-c industry  looking to advance and enhance your business, I urge you to visit our  membership page.  Our mission statement, below, clearly summarizes our  views and goals.

Thank you,
Scott Robinson
TAPHCC State President 

The Tennessee Association of Plumbing, Heating, Cooling Contractors, Inc.,  is a not-for-profit association founded in 1897 for the purpose of  providing services to plumbing-heating-cooling contractors and the PHC industry. 

Our History

The TAPHCC represents the interests of plumbing and HVAC contractors in  Tennessee by providing awareness, marketing tips, business enhancement  tools and a strong legislative presence on issues that affect members'  companies.  We are involved in community awareness programs and are  proud to have been given a Proclamation from the Governor in 2008 in  recognition of Plumbing Industry Week.

The Knoxville Chapter of  the TAPHCC has four year apprenticeship programs in the plumbing and  sheet metal trades for the purpose of education and training of  qualified tradesmen for the future PHC industry.  The TAPHCC is  affiliated with the National Association of Plumbing, Heating, Cooling  Contractors (NAPHCC). 

 

During  the 1880's, the transition from outhouses to indoor plumbing was moving  at a rapid pace.  The true craftsmen sought ways to distinguish those  who knew what they were doing from those who didn't.  In 1882, a group  of these new tradesmen in New York City banded together to form the  Master Plumbers Association of New York.  Shortly afterward, a  like-minded group joined forces in Brooklyn.

In  1883, the 125 members of the New York group formed the National  Association of Master Plumbers (NAMP) to provide the public with a  complete, safe and sanitary plumbing system.  NAMP was the forerunner of  the National PHCC, the oldest construction trade association in America.

The  NAPHCC is a federation with state and local associations. TAPHCC has a  heritage of great leaders who have served on the local, state, and  national levels of PHCC.  Four of its members have become PHCC National  Presidents: Ben Burnette, '65-66; Gene Orr, '82-'83; Dan Burnette,  '90-'91; David Dugger 2012-2013.
